Knapsack Repaired

This was a first step in getting the naturalist expeditionary kit going. Shoulder strap h had to be sewn, as well as a hole in the main compartment needed to be patched. Used Singer iron-on patches and patched both sides of the hole as there were two different materials (leather and some kind of meltable polyester). I've had this sack since middle school! Still going!!

We'll see how the sack holds up as both fixes seem tenuous, but my guess is that they will last a while if they are considered during usage.

Note: the domino thimble was essential in this repair and was not utilized until bloody thumb injury. In addition, the right shoulder strap was damaged by the melting of the iron. I thought the entire construction of the sack was cotton, but a heavy dose of plastic was involved in its making.

Modules on Virtual Memory | Making the Most of Ancestral Intelligence

This project was conceived to better understand the future of the internet, given Generative AI and the burgeoning population. This ultimately has to do with the increasingly abundant amount of information, and our increasing collective ability to remember a lot of what has happened, and recollect what has happened; all of us, Generative AI included. I would like that we amended our current semantics to Generative Ancestral Intelligence , as I think that this gives a clearer idea for the matter of discussion. Below find the modules for this iterative journey through the expanse of The Mind.

Backpack Band-IT - Guitar, Keyboard, Drums on the OTG

After hanging with my buddy Chris for the 4th of July, I was reinspired to look into how to do an extremely portable band system. He likes recording him and his buddies making music and fiddles with things like using his tablet for drums when he's on vacation or at someone's house. A real prohibitive factor for making music is the instruments require a lot of space and are a massive headache to consider when traveling. And an absolute no-go when flying. As a first pass into a portable music system I consider using what I already have, with the exception of one item which would make this a really cool project: the short scale fold up guitar! First what I already have: I conceive the SmartPhone to be the recorder since I will likely want to make fire hot music recordings go viral instantly. There is an app (Piano Extreme: OTG Keyboard) which allows you turn your OTG keyboard hooked up to your phone as a musical keyboard (assigning notes to each character but...

Curb Carriage Wheel-Axel Restoration

Carriage wheel restoration took 4 bic pens (lengthwise cut with dissection scissors), crazy glue for the stress cracked wheels, and hot glue to reinforce. The wheel frame had to be stabilized because it was creeping inward on the axis. That's what caused the wheel stress. The wheels and the hub are one piece so that was all cracked up. We'll have to be careful with it, but I think it should be good for dollie transport again.
